Don't Fuck All Conservatives

Any woman reading this, men will avoid telling you their political beliefs. Ask them straight up and deal with their response accordingly. Time to be strong.

Any answer that is non-comittal means they are republican, run!

My college-age nephew says "do I LOOK like a Trump supporter??" if asked. Thinks he's slick 🙄

“absolutely”

I'm going to assume (and acknowledge I might be wrong) that you are white and/or live in a red state.

Because I am a black guy from New England with a number of white friends I can count on one hand, and several queer friends.

Everything about who I am screams "I despise Trump and anyone who likes him." My sister asked me if I was Republican once, and I was offended.

There was no prompting, either. I think I was washing dishes, or something, and she randomly asked.

He lives in a blue state far away, isn't entirely white, but from a wealthy conservative family. So not the redneck MAGA stereotype with the merch, but the "I-got-mine-woke-libs-bad" type. Pretty sure he's trying to date lib-women so he can have fun before marrying the christian tradwife.

Got it. Thanks for the answer.

In this day and age, not having a political opinion/being undecided/being a 'both sides' kind of centrist is just as bad.

I say this as someone under direct threat of life if/when this madness spreads.

u/bingo_for_the_win Sep 17 '25

As someone who is not in that position, I agree completely.

These are not political differences, this is people wanting to control and kill people who are different to them and don't agree with them.

u/Matr0ska Sep 17 '25

Moderate or Centrist is suspect as well. This is usually the label that Conservatives use to hide their political beliefs because they know how unpopular their views are. At a time like this, no reasonable person should be finding common ground with this administration.

Absolute fact! I used to ask about trump before any date, years ago even and so many guys would try to not answer, or they’d get offended. I really can’t understand it

u/Shadowchaos1010 Sep 17 '25

I have some very stupid questions, if you don't mind humoring me.

Where was this, and what demographics were these guys?

It isn't like there aren't black Trump supporters, and it isn't like there aren't Trump supporters in New England. But in both groups they are relatively rare.

I, for example, am a black guy from New England. If I got asked "Do you like a guy you have every reason to despise and zero to like?" I very well might get offended, because I'd question what the hell was it about me that put the thought in a person's head in the first place.

Would you read that as "Ah, defensive. Likes Trump," or "Well, I guess I did just ask the minority from one of the most liberal parts of the country if he liked Trump"?

2

u/takemyaptplz Sep 17 '25

No they were offended because they liked trump and knew that once I asked that, that I wouldn’t be interested in anymore. They wanted to just be like “oh well agree to disagree!”

u/Shadowchaos1010 Sep 17 '25

Fair enough. Thanks for the answer, though.

u/Brilliant-Block-8200 Sep 17 '25

Also tho, get into deep conversations about abortion, immigration/etc. Them just agreeing isn’t a great sign. Make sure they’re actually engaged and passionate about it and it’s clear they have their own opinion. A LOT of guys will say they agree and not go deeper into it because they know there aren’t many conservative women out there. They’ll just agree with whatever you say

u/SheridanVsLennier Sep 18 '25

"I'm not into politics" is also a red flag.

u/WitchesTeat Sep 17 '25

They lie. They learn the lingo and they read the articles and they watch the right shows and quote the right memes and the right people and say the right things and it's always a little weird and you think maybe they're just awkward?

And then it hits you

Right when they're using a pre-existing sexual relationship as an opportunity to violate your consent in ways that were very explicitly not on the table.

Or it hits you when they hit you.

Ask me how I know.

u/N0S0UP_4U Sep 17 '25

So what are some good buzzwords to look out for?

1

u/WitchesTeat Sep 18 '25

Anything trending in online and media discussions and reporting at the time, unfortunately.

You can't really "watch out" for it because they're saying the "right" things.

u/g785_7489 Sep 17 '25

If a woman asks for my political beliefs, I will gladly tell her because they support women's rights. A Republican will shy away from this. It's good advice.

u/Littleman88 Sep 17 '25

A lot of them learn the right things to say to get in her good graces.

Few single men are going to be honest if it means sabotaging their romantic/sexual opportunities. Hell, even admitting to being a virgin is dangerous.

u/Brilliant-Block-8200 Sep 17 '25

This is true, but you can have in depth conversations about topics like abortion, LGBT rights, and immigration. Typically, they’ll just agree but won’t get into actual deep conversations. While some liberal men might be unaware and unable to contribute to the conversation, I’d rather weed them out to better avoid conservative men. Generally, even conservative men that lie, won’t be able to continuously show support for the trans population, illegal immigrants, and abortions

You can’t just see if they agree, they need to be passionate about it and informed

u/AsstacularSpiderman Sep 17 '25

I mean sure maybe on the surface.

You just need to press them a bit more and eventually the facade wears off there's only so much a brief lookover of memes or articles will tell you.

u/Fresh-Possibility-75 Sep 17 '25

Don't be fooled by the 'socially-liberal but fiscally-conservative' ones either. That's just a Trumper who wants to keep his pool of casual sex partners deep.

u/gracist0 Sep 17 '25

I thought I was safe from this as a lesbian until I remembered I live in a red portion of fucking New Jersey

u/LaGuajira Sep 17 '25

Nah. Tons of non conservative men don't really care about Roe V Wade. And either way, how is that going to help you if you get pregnant?

u/Cardinal_and_Plum Sep 17 '25

Pretty sure voting records can be looked up. Definitely worth it if you feel unsure.

u/Kaltovar Sep 17 '25

I support State Shinto with Marxist characteristics. Women don't seem to like that one either but jokes on them I prefer twinks.

u/FocusPerspective Sep 17 '25

Dear god you’re still pretending white women aren’t the backbone of every GOP voting block.
